I dropped my phone in the drink again and att or cingular whatever the **** they are this week won't give me another. So pretty much only option is enbay for an unlocked phone. I buy the thing and upgrade to 2nd day air... this is monday. Yesterday I get an email saying it shipped....... Ground, so I paid $27 and they are gicing me **** on a refund. I pretty much figure u buy on ebay yer flushing yer money.



I think the only bigger scam going is the democratic party.

Damn guys. That sux.



If anyone is looking for an unlocked Blackberry Pearl, we were about to list it on eBay.



It was my wife's phone, and we switched to WiFi phones, so she doesn't need it anymore.



She said $200 for it. Shipping may be like $12 anywhere in the 48.

No, but it doesn't take the intellect or insight of a talkshow radio host to figure out, not only have they not shat or gotten off the pot, they've clogged the ****** with toilet paper, epoxy'd the lid shut, turned off the water supply and shived the plunger in order to disable it.



At least the rep's are upfront about the ******* you are about to recieve, give ya a little heads up before they give you a toss.

Scott needs to invest in a phone lanyard or retractable tether or something.



The only thing ebay is good for is scamming
